President Biden’s National Security Advisor, Jake Sullivan, has once again shown his inability to set realistic expectations or provide honest answers. In a recent essay, Sullivan lauded Biden’s foreign policy as brilliant and stabilizing, conveniently overlooking the recent horrific attacks by Hamas on Israel. The online version of the essay had significant edits and deletions, including the removal of Sullivan’s claim that the Biden administration had successfully de-escalated crises in Gaza. One can’t help but wonder how exactly that claim holds up in the face of Hamas terrorists slaughtering innocent Israelis.

Furthermore, Sullivan falsely claimed that attacks on American troops in the Middle East had largely stopped under Biden’s leadership. However, the past few days have seen a surge in attacks, with U.S. forces being targeted at least 14 times and numerous soldiers being injured. It seems Sullivan’s rosy picture of Biden’s foreign policy doesn’t match the reality on the ground.
Sullivan also boasted about Biden’s “disciplined approach” in the Middle East, claiming it reduced the risk of new conflicts and protected U.S. interests. But handing over Afghanistan to the Taliban and empowering Iran through the nuclear deal only served to create more instability and embolden our enemies. It’s clear that Biden’s approach has failed to deter aggression, de-escalate conflicts, or integrate the region.
While Sullivan may have hoped to celebrate the supposed successes of Biden’s foreign policy, recent events have exposed the truth. The world is now witnessing the disastrous consequences of the Biden administration’s weak and misguided approach. It’s time for Sullivan and the Biden team to face the reality and reassess their failed strategies.
